git-fetch(1)
============
NAME
----
git-fetch - Download objects and a head from another repository.
SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-fetch' <repository> <refspec>...
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Fetches named heads or tags from another repository, along with
the objects necessary to complete them.
The ref names and their object names of fetched refs are stored
in $GIT_DIR/FETCH_HEAD. This information is left for a later merge
operation done by "git resolve" or "git octopus".
OPTIONS
-------
include::pull-fetch-param.txt[]
-a, \--append::
Append ref names and object names of fetched refs to the
existing contents of $GIT_DIR/FETCH_HEAD. Without this
option old data in $GIT_DIR/FETCH_HEAD will be overwritten.
-u, \--update-head-ok::
By default 'git-fetch' refuses to update the head which
corresponds to the current branch. This flag disables the
check. Note that fetching into the current branch will not
update the index and working directory, so use it with care.
